Routine Care

The backbone of any good equine care is a program based on preventing some of the more common problems.  Vaccinations should be done bi-annually as some need a booster every 6 months and others are yearly.  We should also check your horses’ teeth at least twice a year to see if they need to be floated.  Horse’s teeth erupt continuously through their lifetimes and need maintenance so they can continue to chew and digest their food properly.  A coggins test is also required yearly for all horses.

Services that can be done at the annual exam (click on them to find out more):

  1. vaccines
  2. teeth
  3. coggins
  4. routine blood work
  5. body condition scoring with a nutritional discussion
  6. endocrine testing

Unfortunately, we live in a state with a very active population of mosquitoes, rabid animals, and traveling show horses so make sure your horse is protected against all these things by making your appointment today.

 Pre-purchase Exams

Prior to buying or selling a horse, it is wise to have a veterinarian perform a pre-purchase exam.  This exam consists of a full physical exam, ophthalmic exam, and lameness evaluation.  At the buyers' request or if a potential problem is identified we can take radiographs or pull blood work for a drug screen.  This comprehensive overview then is discussed with the buyer to allow them to make an informed decision regarding the sale.
